The VacancyAt IRIS Software Group, we build software that helps thousands of schools and trusts across the UK work more efficiently and stay on top of essential tasks - from HR and payroll to health & safety and compliance. Our mission is simple: to free up time for school staff so they can focus on what really matters - supporting their pupils.One of our most popular products is called Every - a cloud-based platform that helps schools manage all the moving parts of their daily operations in one secure place. With Every, schools can schedule building checks, track staff absences, log maintenance requests, store policies, and much more. It brings everything together, giving school teams a clear view of what needs doing, when, and why.When a school joins Every, they need someone to walk them through the system, show them how it works in simple terms, and help them feel confident using it. That's where you come in.As a Training Consultant Associate, you'll play a key part in that onboarding journey. You'll deliver engaging training sessions and support school staff as they get to grips with the software. This is an entry-level role, ideal if you're at the start of your career and want to build experience in training, education, or tech. You don't need a background in software - we'll teach you everything you need to know.You'll be part of a supportive and friendly team based out of our Leeds office. The role is hybrid, with a mix of working from home, spending time in the office, and travelling to schools across the UK to deliver in-person training. You'll work Monday to Friday, 08:00-16:00, which gives you a clear structure and strong work-life balance - no evenings or weekend shifts required.🧩 What Will You Be Doing?
  • Run live online training
You'll lead interactive webinars and virtual sessions, explaining Every in a clear, helpful, step-by-step way using tools like Zoom or Teams.
  • Visit schools for in-person training
Some schools prefer on-site support. You'll travel to schools across the UK to deliver hands-on sessions. A full UK driving licence and access to a car are essential for this part of the role.
  • Create useful guides and resources
Not everyone learns the same way, so you'll also help build written guides, videos, and checklists to support different learning styles.
  • Support schools after training
You'll answer follow-up questions and make sure users feel confident continuing to use Every day-to-day.
  • Keep up to date
Every is always improving - and you'll stay in the loop so your training content reflects the latest features.
  • Work closely with others
You'll collaborate with our onboarding and support teams to give schools the best experience possible.💡 Who Are We Looking For?This is an entry-level role.
